C Client Library for memcached (libmemcached, -lmemcached)

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  #include <memcached.h>

  void memcached_server_list_free (memcached_server_st *ptr);

  memcached_server_st *
    memcached_server_list_append (memcached_server_st *ptr, 
                                  char *hostname,
                                  unsigned int port, 
                                  memcached_return *error);

  unsigned int memcached_server_list_count (memcached_server_st *ptr);

  memcached_server_st *memcached_servers_parse (char *server_strings);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

libmemcached(3) operates on a list of hosts which are stored in
memcached_server_st structures. You should not modify these structures
directly. Functions are provided to modify these structures (and more can be
added, just ask!).

memcached_server_list_free() deallocates all memory associated with the array
of memcached_server_st that you passed to it. 

memcached_server_list_append() adds a server to the end of a
memcached_server_st array. On error null will be returned and the
memcached_return pointer you passed into the function will be set with the
appropriate error. If the value of port is zero, it is set to the default
port of a memcached server.

memcached_servers_parse() takes a string, the type that is used for the
command line applications, and parse it to an array of memcached_server_st.
The example is "localhost, foo:555, foo, bar". All hosts except foo:555 will
be set to the default port, while that host will have a port of 555.
